AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT
Setting the Accompaniment
Volume
Set the volume of the Auto Accompaniment sound using the
ACCOMPANIMENT VOLUME buttons. The MASTER
VOLUME control can be used to set the overall volume level.
Setting the Tempo
Use the TEMPO buttons to set the desired accompaniment
tempo (see “Setting the Tempo” on page 7 for details).
The [INTRO/FILL IN] button can be used in the Auto Accompani-
ment mode to create pattern variations in the same way that it is with
rhythm accompaniment patterns (refer to “Adding Fill-ins” on page 8
for details).
Fingered Accompaniment
The FINGERED mode is ideal if you already know how to
play chords on a keyboard, since it allows you to supply your
own chords for the Auto Accompaniment feature.
1. Press the [MODE] button as many times as necessary
until the FINGERED indicator lights — this selects the
FINGERED mode.
2.
If necessary, set the split point as described below:
Setting the FINGERED Mode Split Point:
The split point for the FINGERED mode is initially set at
the G2 key. It can be set to any other key by pressing the
desired split-point key while holding the [SPLIT POINT
CHANGE] button.
The split point is shown on the MULTI DISPLAY for
as long as the [SPLIT POINT CHANGE] button is held.
The G2 key, for example, would be displayed as “g 2”.
F#2 would be displayed as “F
–
2”. The sharp is indicated
by the lit bar between the “F” and the “2.”
The FINGERED mode split point is retained in
memory and will be recalled whenever the FINGERED
mode is selected. A method of initializing the FINGERED
mode split point to its original default value is described
on page 6.
10
The PSR-200/300 memorizes separate SINGLE FINGER, FIN-
GERED, and SPLIT mode split points. The corresponding split point
is automatically recalled when one of these modes is selected.
3.
Select the desired accompaniment style in the normal way.
Although you can select the melody (upper keyboard)
voice you intend to use, the PSR-200/PSR-300 automati-
cally determines the voices to be used for the accompani-
ment part according the accompaniment style you select.
4.
Press the [START/STOP] button, [SYNCHRO START/
ENDING] button or the [INTRO/FILL IN] buttons to de-
termine how the accompaniment will be started (see page
7). If you press the [START/STOP] button or the [INTRO/
FILL IN] button, the rhythm will begin playing immedi-
ately without bass and chord accompaniment.
5.
As soon as you play any chord in the Auto Accompaniment
section of the keyboard, the PSR-200/PSR-300 will auto-
matically begin to play the chord along with the selected
rhythm and an appropriate bass line. The accompaniment
will continue playing even if you release the Auto Accom-
paniment keys.
The PSR-200/PSR-300 will accept the following chord
types (see fingering chart on page 19):

Notes in parentheses may be omitted.
Minor sixth chords will only be properly detected if
they are played in “root position”. Seventh flatted fifth
chords will only be recognized if either the root or flatted
seventh is the lowest note. For diminished and augmented
chords, the lowest key pressed is assumed to be the root.
An octave — i.e. two notes played exactly one octave apart —
will be detected as a chord suitable for major or minor, with the
note played as the root note.
All other FINGERED mode operations are the same as in the
SINGLE FINGER mode.
